This is my place to relate my experiences with cancer treatment, as well as share resources that may be helpful to fellow oral, head, and neck cancer survivors. I was diagnosed with adenoid cystic carcinoma of the left parotid on June 30, 2006. My goal is to continue enjoying the Nebraska Good Life. I call this blog the "Cheeky Librarian", since the cancer was discovered in my cheek, I am a librarian, and many that know me say I fit the slang use of the word 'cheeky'.

What sidetracks you from thinking about your adenoid cystic carcinoma?
As I delve deeper into the planning and the execution of plans for the beginning of the year events at our university of medicine, I notice that I can go days at a time without thinking of ACC or when it might come back - until I get that twinge in my neck or cheek that serves as a reminder of previous battles with the critter. I am very interested in learning how you keep your mind away from dwelling about this 'insidious' cancer - please share in the comments.
